As school is fast approaching for some and already here for others I just wanted to share this great invention tie buddies! It is another one of those great mom invented products! It was created in January 2007 by inventor and mother of two, Wendy Welling.
This is another one of those great inventions that you think why didn't I come up with that? I always teach my kids to tie their shoes as part of school. So, of course it really shocked me when I got my now 9 yr old to learn to tie her shoes on her first day of kindergarten. I have been working on my 2 1/2 yr old and so when I got a chance to try this I jumped on it.
I was sent a girl pair of tie buddies to try. I love the whole idea! It does the bunny ears for you so they can get the feel of tying first. Later on you can take one tie buddy loop out and slow wean them till they are doing the whole process themselves! It's great for younger ones as just trying to hold the loop is hard for their little hands and can get kind of confusing for them.
I have to say this is every kindergartners must have! My little one loves her tie buddies. She still grasping the concept of how you have to tie the loops but she is catching on. I can see that very soon she will be able to tie her own shoes without any help.
Tie Buddies is offering one of my lucky readers their very own tie buddies!
